Port of Montreal “paralysed” as strike looms

2023 was a mixed year for Montreal as cargo volume declined, but operating revenues increased 2.8%.

The Port of Hamburg stands poised to weather the disruptions from the impending strike from the German Union of Locomotive Drivers (GDL).

Montreal Port Authority, Oceanex and QSL have announced they will create the first domestic green shipping corridor, between Quebec and the Port of St John’s Newfoundland

Canada breathes a sign of relief as the ILWU Canada membership votes to ratify negotiated contract settlement, ending the threat of further disruption.

After ILWU Canada membership rejected a tentative agreement negotiated at the bargaining table, a hastily agreed “negotiated collective agreement” will be put to a new membership vote.

As work resumed, the ILWU Canada issued a new strike notice, which was subsequently withdrawn.
